you must be in the high limit plus probably need a little more care on valve train, in other word, can you run 300 hours without touching the heads and valve train ?

Think it all depends on the CI and build. Like MT touched on that there will likely be more frequent ruiteen maintenance schedules and wicked higher rpm' around the docks and marinas but at the same time some people could care less. It's all about what floats your boat. It's fun to have all the options we have. NA, roots, screw, procharger, turbo etc. |

I'm not comparing anything to drag racing I was simply just asking a question. I was just asking the question to see what people think. I could see the fact that your not going to get 200+ hrs out of one that's for sure.
